A shielded connector for electrically interconnecting electrical components or printed circuit boards, or electrically connecting electrical components to printed circuit boards is shown to include a terminal layer having a plurality of contact terminals. First and second insulating layers are positioned on either side of the terminal layer. A plurality of shield walls are oriented to pass through the first and second insulating layers and to pass between the contact terminals. A side shield is positioned along side the shield walls and electrically connected along one edge to the side shield. The column assembly is mounted in a housing. In a preferred embodiment, a second side shield is positioned on the side of the shield walls opposite the electrically connected edge. In such an embodiment, it is also preferred to combine two columns in a manner that sandwiches an insulating layer. The layered structure is preferably constructed to constitute a right angle connector when mounted in a housing. In an especially preferred embodiment, the shielded connector is constructed from a series of lead frames.
